Anyone actually going to deny this? Aside from the upper level webmasters, the percentage of cheats, theifs, liars and scammers outnumber the honest. Who is 100% honest to their surfers and other webmasters? Very, very few.
In this business you either make spam or delete spam. You can pretty well tell who is who by which side of this fence you sit on.

I delete a lot of spam. Hours wasted every day and thousands of dollars spent for spam detection shit I never imagined I'd need when I started.

I'm not talking about email spam here. I'm talking about people who try to scam every fucking way imaginable. And when you kick them off your proggy THEY get belligerent. Jesus fucking Christ, if you're gonna make your money by ripping people off, at least go away quietly when you're caught.
